Oxford Innovation’s team of experienced advisors will provide practical, hands-on help with matters ranging from creating or developing a business plan, identifying new markets and developing new products and services to raising funding and building a team. There will be a particular focus on entrepreneurs and start-ups in Camborne, Pool, Redruth, St Austell and the Clay Country.

The programme and Coaching for High Growth are managed by Oxford Innovation as part of the Convergence programme which aims to build a stronger economy for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. 

“New businesses are the future generators of wealth creation for this region and the UK and there is an increasing culture of entrepreneurship amongst young people in this region. We can help such businesses access the funding, knowledge, expertise and networks needed to boost their growth. I look forward to assisting potential entrepreneurs who want to get started in business as well as start-up companies who would like help in particular business areas so that they can develop further.”Sarah Livingstone, Project Manager for the Starting a High Growth Business Programme, Oxford Innovation Ltd
